Yes. The typical November day in Bodrum is Calm, and only 1 of the 30 days in our window runs Busy or Packed. Expect around 21 °C by day, with rain on about 9 days. The crowd comes with the school holidays in Germany. Cruise ships call on 1 of the 30 days, 2 at once on Sunday 1 November. No week of November is meaningfully quieter — the typical day is Calm throughout; pick by day instead. The crush is at the castle gate; the quiet is at the water. The calmest day is Saturday 7 November, the busiest Sunday 1 November.
In short, a genuinely good window to pick.

Pack for wet first — rain on 9 of 30 days.
